Variety of things.:
This is not enough info to be sure, but looks like you have a mild iron deficiency anemia. This is understandable in a menstruating female. Could also be a more complex anemia with underlying thalassemia. Would need to see iron and ferritin and old blood counts to be sure.

Anemia:
Microcytic anemia (low mcv) with a high RDW (cells very a lot in size) is most likely associated with anemia from loss of red blood cells. The increased RDW is likely from reticulocytes or new rbc that the body is producing. A full of valuation for this should be done.

Don't:
Dhea doesn't help fertility. Don't believe everything you read on the internet. Dhea is converted to cortisone, estrogen or testosterone, and you can't control which it's made into or how much of each. Plus, your pill probably doesn't contain much actual
dhea. Don't play with your health and fertility, consult your doctor.

Confusing:
One would not look at the results in the way that you are suggesting. You would not use the fsh to make a judgement about a day 9 estrogen. It is probably best to schedule a visit with the doctor who ran the tests to explain how the results apply to your clinical scenario.

Why tests done?:
The normalcy of these results depends on the context in which they were ordered. For example, a 3rd day FSH below 5 would suggest acceptable ovarian reserves; this test is done to assess a woman's fertility. Yours was 2nd day, which is different, but interpreting these results would depend on the clinical context within which they were ordered.

Elevated Cortisol:
A cortisol of 40 is high and even though exogenous estrogen is known to slightly elevate serum cortisol levels, a value of 40 needs to be evaluated. Long term corrisol elevation is injurious to your health and may signify an underlying adrenal glandular condition, such as Cushing's syndrome. You should follow up with an endocrinologist soon.

Not necessarily:
The most important thing to be following in a water deprivation test is the urine and serum osmolality. If the serum osmolality rises above normal, but the urine osmolality does not rise significantly, you have diabetes insipidus. Measuring ADH (vasopressin) levels can be unreliable.

Marker for disease:
The lab value itself is not the danger. You have hemochromatosis until proved otherwise. It is lethal if untreated, but easy to treat. Get follow-up from a competent physician.

Sounds like PCOS:
These levels show you have not ovulated by day 16 due to the lower progesterone. Typically throughout the month the fsh is higher than the lh. The lh goes up just before ovulation to trigger the release of the egg. This is what on ovulation predictor kit is checking for. You could be seeing the lh surge just before ovulation which could happen as late as day 20, or it could be high b/c of pcos.

Testosterone :
Low T can cause fatigue weakness, poor sleep, and poor muscle tone. You can go to the gym, lift weights, do strenuous activity, have sex, as all these will raise testosterone levels. Have your doc check a AM testosterone free and total binding level, on multiple random days to officially determine if you have this.

Testosterone:
The easiest way to increase your testosterone is to see a doctor who can check your testosterone level and then prescribe testosterone injectsble, cream, gel, or pellets that they can insert for you periodically. Best of luck to you!

With your docs help:
Assuming you are having some testosterone symptoms, first have it measured. If it is too high or too low, then your doctor will look for the cause and start to fix it. This is not something that is easy for you to do on your own. Have a doc help you. Get it right the first time, the results are worth it!

Testosterone:
T can be increased naturally by regular exercise and muscle building activity. If the tested level is lower than normals there are topical and injection sources of testosterone available.

* get between 8-10hrs sleep nightly
* don't smoke....Anything

Exercise & lose fat:
First, let's clear a common misconception that's used to separate you from your money. There is no dietary supplement that will naturally & safely increase testosterone. In other words, there are no testosterone boosters, at least not in the States. Maybe in India but not here. Instead, get rid of fat that converts T into female hormone.

Check w/your lab:
Ask your ordering physician to interpret your result for you. Ideally, you get a copy of test results from lab that includes normal reference range so that you can see for yourself. Do realize that different techniques are used by different labs such that what's normal for one facility isn't for another. Bottom line, always ask ordering physician to interpret results. BTW, units matter.

Is it needed?:
Testosterone replacement with prescrition medication will raise testoetrone levels. There are topical gels as well as injectable forms. Your physician will first determien if you need testosterone replacement - based on symptoms and laboratory testing. You should not use testosterne replacement if your levels are normal.

Any level is fine:
Women aren't attracted by testosterone level. Nor can they necessarily tell what yours is just by looking at you. Different women look for different things in their partners/friends/mates. Some look for different physical attributes. Others look for non-physical attributes. None of these necessarily correlate w/testosterone so any level should be fine as long as you're reasonably groomed & confide.

Hard work!:
Seriously! strenuous intense exercise can increase testosterone. Shedding body fat via exercise does this since fat converts testosterone into Estradiol (female hormone) which then shuts down testosterone production. So less body fat allows for more t production. Of course, this is a bit of the chicken & egg conundrum.

R u a man or mouse?:
Sorry, I couldn't resist. Truth is that interpreting testosterone result depends upon age, gender & even time of day. We also need to know reference range including units (ng/dL vs nmol/L) which varies w/lab. So it's really impossible to answer your question w/so many variables to consider. Finally, we treat patients, not just numbers. Just b/c T=2.65 doesn't require TRT if asymptomatic.

Testosterone :
Your testosterone level can be measured by a simple blood test. The test should be drawn during the early morning before 10 am because that is when the testosterone level is at its highest during the day. Many physician will order both a free and total testosterone. The free testosterone is often seen as a more accurate measurement of your testosterone level. www.peedoc.com @drhtay.

Get fat & diabetes:
Sorry, not trying to be flippant but it's a bit of a chicken & egg question. Regardless of sex, we've linked obesity to lower t. Diabetes is also linked to low t. Recent study showed that exercising & eating right led to weight loss & boost in t. So if you want to naturally lower yours, do the opposite. But as far as taking a supplement, i'm not aware of any, although some prescription meds help.

Look on lab sheet:
Ask your doc for original lab result sheet which includes not only your result but also the normal reference range for your specific test & lab (there are several ways to measure T). In actuality, It's very doubtful that 619ng/dL is very low as most labs' normal ranges from 250-1,100. Best to discuss your results w/your family doc. More importantly, why did you get test in first place?

Morning:
Testosterone is circadian and is higher in the am, in men. In women, testosterone comes from a variety of sources. If you are checking t to diagnose pcos, it probably would not matter what time it is taken.

Depends:
How high is high? Different labs use different equipment to measure. Statistics are also involved in what's considered normal. In general, elevated t can lead to unwanted facial/body hair, deepening of voice & clitoromegaly in women. In both genders. Too much t can cause 'roid rage, male pattern hair loss, oily skin/acne, increase in blood count & pressure & drop in HDL (good) cholesterol.

Why is it low?:
Before you can fix it, you need to diagnose it. Either your testicles aren't working or your brain is not asking your testicles to work. There is medication for all of that. Time to call your family doctor. If you family doctor does not know how to help you, then ask for the name of another doctor that can help you.

Very low:
Hi. That's a very low testosterone. Did you go through a normal puberty then lose function, or did normal puberty never occur? Do you or did you take anabolic steroids? Many things are possible to explain this. You should see an endocrinologist for an evaluation. I believe your country is civilized and has nationalized healthcare, so it should be possible to get a top notch evaluation. Good luck!
